Device Story
SCIg60 Infusion System is a reusable, non-electronic, ambulatory infusion pump; uses mechanical spring force to provide pressure for subcutaneous infusion of immunoglobulin solutions. System components include SCIg60 Infuser Pump, flow rate controllers (Infuset, VersaRate, or VersaRate Plus), and SUB-Q administration sets. Operates with BD 50 mL syringe (model 309653). Used in home or hospital by patients or caregivers. Flow rate controlled by fixed-length tubing (Infuset) or adjustable dial (VersaRate/VersaRate Plus) that alters fluid path dimensions. Healthcare providers use provided flow rate tables in User Manual to select settings based on specific drug and needle set. Device provides controlled delivery of biologics; benefits patient by enabling ambulatory subcutaneous administration of immunoglobulin therapy.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. Performance testing verified flow rate accuracy for new immunoglobulin solutions (Gamunex-C, Gammaked, Xembify, Cutaquig) using various controller/needle set combinations. Testing confirmed flow rates remain within drug-specific labeling limits and are equivalent to predicate performance.
Indicated for subcutaneous infusion of specific human plasma-derived immunoglobulin G (IgG) solutions in adult and pediatric patients in home or hospital settings. Contraindications: None stated.

Primary Predicate Device: K161906, SCIg60 Infusion System (Product Code - PKP)
#### IV. DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The EMED SCIg60 Infusion System consists of the SCIg60 Infuser Pump, a flow rate controller (Infuset fixed rate flow control extension set. VersaRate variable flow rate controller, or VersaRate Plus variable flow rate controller), and can be used with commercially available SUB-Q administration sets that utilize a standard Luer Lock style connector. The SCIg60 Infuser Pump must be used with the BD 50 mL syringe (model no. 309653 manufactured by Becton Dickinson (BD)), which was formerly labeled as a 60 mL syringe.
The SCIg60 Infuser pump is a reusable mechanical, non-electronic ambulatory infusion pump that does not require batteries or any electrical source. The SCIg60 Infuser Pump uses a spring as a source of energy to provide pressure for the subcutaneous infusion of the indicated human plasma-derived immunoglobulin solutions. The SCIg60 Infuser Pump is provided with a carrying case and User Manual.
The Infuset flow rate controller is an individually packaged, sterile, single use device. It is assembled from standard Luer components and specified lengths of PVC microbore tubing. The length and diameter of the tubing results in fixed flow rates when used with the SCIg60 Infuser Pump, and include side-clamps for stopping the flow of fluid. The
{4}------------------------------------------------
SCIg60 Infusion System User Manual includes information to guide users in the selection of Infuset flow rate controller and SUB-Q patient administration sets to achieve the desired infusion rates.
The VersaRate or VersaRate Plus variable flow rate controllers are individually packaged, sterile, single use devices. They may be used with the SCIg60 Infuser Pump to provide convenient control of the flow rate without having to select specific Infuset flow rate controller. The barrel-shaped dial (VersaRate) or flat dial (VersaRate Plus) can be adjusted by turning a barrel or dial in order to set an appropriate flow rate of immune globulin solution, or stop the fluid flow entirely. The SCIg60 Infusion System User Manual includes information to guide users in the selection of VersaRate (or VersaRate Plus) settings and SUB-Q patient administration sets to achieve the desired infusion rates.

* Note that the syringe used with the SCIg60 infusion system is a BD syringe, model 309653. This syringe was formerly labeled by BD as a 60 ml syringe, but has since been re-labeled as a 50 ml syringe. It is the same product (without the 60 ml barrel markings), and has the same model number.
#### VI. INIDCATIONS FOR USE COMPARISON
The key difference between the subject device and the predicates is the expanded indications of use to include additional brands and concentrations of the same type of biologic product, namely human plasma-derived immunoglobulin G (IgG) solutions.
To determine the degree of similarity between the immunoglobulin solutions, and therefore the likelihood of adverse interaction with the SCIg60 Infusion System, information and product attributes of the indicated immunoglobulin solutions were obtained from their Prescribing Information inserts, published literature, and through testing performed at EMED and outside laboratories. EMED has assessed the differences between the specified biologics to determine if they raise any new issues of safety or effectiveness. It was determined that the protein concentration, pH, osmolarity, viscosity, and density are similar between all the biologics, and any minor differences do not alter the intended therapeutic effect of the SCIg60 Infusion System when the system is used as labeled.
The SCIg60 Infusion System has also been qualified for infusion of the additional proposed immunoglobulin solutions. Performance tests, labeling, and risk management activities qualify the SCIg60 Infusion System for use with Gamunex-C. Gammaked, Xembify and Cutaquig, and satisfactorily mitigate any risks associated with the addition of these specific immunoglobulin solutions.
#### VII. TECHNOLOGICAL COMPARISON
The overall principle of action for the SCIg60 Infusion System consists of a constant force source acting upon a syringe filled with fluid, with the flow rate of that fluid being regulated by PVC tubing with fixed fluid path dimensions (i.e., tubing length and inner diameter) in the case of Infuset, or by the change in fluid path upon adjusting the flow dial of the VersaRate and VersaRate Plus variable flow rate controllers.
The SCIg60 Infuser Pump, Infuset flow control extension sets, and VersaRate flow controller are identical to those presented in K161906. The VersaRate Plus™ is identical
{7}------------------------------------------------
to the VersaRate™, except for the new flow rate regulator module and diverter/gasket material.
## SCIG60 INFUSER:
The material(s), weight, dimensions, syringe/fluid container and principle of action of the proposed infuser compared to the predicate described in K161906 are identical.
Static Operating Pressure: The design and manufacture of the SCIg60 that is the subject of this premarket clearance submission and that found in K161906 is identical, and therefore the pressure provided by this device is also identical.
## FLOW CONTROLLERS:
The materials, dimensions, design, principles of action, manufacturing, and sterilization (of single use disposable accessories) of the subject device and the device described in K161906 are similar. Both VersaRate Plus™ and VersaRate™ are intended for the same use and the two devices have similar biocompatibility profiles.
### Principle of Action
The principle of action of the VersaRate Plus and VersaRate are the same: rotating the dial alters fluid path dimensions internal to the flow regulator component that is the key functional element of these variable flow controllers. EMED has generated a detailed Risk Management Matrix for both devices, and the mitigated risks are similar. When used according to EMED's IFUs and the SCIg60 User Manual, both devices have been determined to be safe and effective for their intended use.
#### Dial settings
VersaRate has 7 positions: off, full open, and 5 intermediate positions. VersaRate Plus has 13 positions: off, full open, and 11 intermediate positions. The additional positions of the VersaRate Plus enable the VersaRate Plus to be used with more needle sets, compared to the VersaRate. As each needle set (and connected tubing) represents a different flow resistance, the user must consult tables of flow rates for the different needle sets (including multiple needles) that are provided in the SCIg60 User Manual. Tables are provided for the Infuset, VersaRate, and VersaRate Plus. Therefore, the specific dial position (VersaRate or VersaRate Plus) is selected to achieve a specific flow rate through a specific needle set depending on which flow controller is used.
#### Flow rate ranges
When tested with saline with gravity feed, 80cm height, during bench testing, the VersaRate flow rates range from 13-285 ml/h (not including the full-open position), while the VersaRate Plus flow rates range from 20-356 ml/h (not including the full-open position). However, EMED has done substantial testing of the VersaRate Plus to ensure that it can provide equivalent flow rates to the VersaRate for various needle sets and biologics. The flow rate for both VersaRate and VersaRate Plus are comparable when tested as a system (with the SCIg60 Infuser pump, biologic and a needle set) - 9-156 ml/h (VersaRate) and 9-271 ml/h (VersaRate Plus). The SCIg60 User Manual specifies flow controller settings to achieve the required flow rate with a given drug and needle set. All flow rates provided in the SCIg60 User Manual are within the drug PI limits.
{8}------------------------------------------------
### Materials
The VersaRate Plus™ flow rate controller has all the same materials (except the diverter/gasket) as the original VersaRate™. Luer lock connectors are made of the exact same material (Rigid PVC Nan-Ya 3MTA002GXX-001) and utilize the same molding process and supplied by the same source. Tubing is the same material (PVC 7477G-015). and extrusion process is used for both product configurations. Protective Luer caps are the exact same components for both product configurations. Assembly process is equivalent for both product configurations; assembled by the same supplier. The same packaging materials and sterilization process are used for both product configurations. Based on EMED analysis and supporting engineering reports, the VersaRate Plus™ does not introduce any new risks or substantially modify risks of the original VersaRate™ flow controller. VersaRate Plus™ was tested to demonstrate compliance with the chemical requirements in accordance with ISO 8536-9:2015.
## Sterility and Manufacture/Processing
No changes to the sterilization method, cycle, Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) or the pyrogenicity test method have been made.
EMED sterilization validation per ISO 11135:2014 demonstrated that the sterilization process and equipment used for sterilization of EMED flow controllers continues to be reliable, consistent, and capable of sterilizing EMED products at a minimum SAL of 10-6 using cycle 104 and 100% Ethylene Oxide. The residual results for EO and ECH were evaluated per ISO 10993-7:2008/Amd 1:2019 and confirmed to not exceed the allowable limits for EO and ECH residues after sterilization.
## SCIG60 SYSTEM:
Flow Rate Performance: Testing to determine flow rates provided by the SCIg60 Infusion System when used with the additional indicated immunoglobulin solutions was performed using the indicated BD 50ml svringe and a variety of combinations of the Infuset Flow Control Extension Sets, VersaRate and VersaRate Plus flow controllers, and EMED SUB-O administration sets. The test strategy employed for the indicated immunoglobulin solutions flow rate performance determination was identical to that used in K161906 to establish flow rate performance of the SCIg60 Infusion System with Hizentra.
The performance of the EMED SCIg60 Infusion System when used with indicated immunoglobulin solutions is equivalent to that of the predicate. Flow rates of infused fluids are dependent on fluid characteristics such as density and viscosity, and therefore minor differences between flow rates established for Hizentra in the predicate and the newly indicated immunoglobulin solutions in the subject device is expected. Specifically, the 10% immunoglobulin solutions (Gamunex-C and Gammaked) and 16.5% immunoglobulin solution (Cutaquig) show a higher flow rate than the 20% solutions (Hizentra, Cuvitru, Xembify) due to their lower viscosity.
EMED fully characterized the flow rates for the proposed immunoglobulin solutions, and they are equivalent to those provided by the SCIg60 Infusion System when used with the Hizentra as found in K161906. Additionally, only those combinations of Infuset,
{9}------------------------------------------------
VersaRate, VersaRate Plus and EMED SUB-Q sets that provide flow rate performance in line with indicated immunoglobulin manufacturer recommendations are included in this assessment, as well as SCIg60 Infusion System labeling and Instructions for Use. Combinations that allow for flow rates that exceed manufacturer recommendations are not provided.
Therefore, any differences in flow rate performance are minor and do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness of the device when the SCIg60 Infusion System is used as intended.
Package Labeling and User Instructions: Product packaging, labeling, and User Instructions are identical to that of the predicate with the exception that pertinent sections have been updated as necessary to reflect the expansion of indicated uses to include the infusion of Gamunex-C, Gammaked, Xembify, and Cutaquig. Any updates to User Instructions to reflect use of the additional indicated immunoglobulin solutions follow the same format and structure of that of the original User Instructions submitted in K161906.
#### VIII. Non-Clinical and/or Clinical Tests Summary & Conclusions
No clinical study is included in this submission.
Various performance tests were conducted to verify the SCIg60 Infusion System successfully satisfied user needs and product requirements stated in the Patient Information inserts of the new subcutaneously infused immunoglobulin medicines. The data generated by the performance tests demonstrates that the EMED Technologies Corporation SCIg60 Infusion System, including the SCIg60 Infuser Pump, Infuset flow control extension sets. VersaRate and VersaRate Plus flow controllers, used with SUB-O patient administration sets, is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices and provides infusion rates consistent with the FDA approved human plasma-derived immunoglobulin labeling, when used as directed.
Two short videos show you everything — or skip straight to the written tutorial if you'd rather read. You can reopen this any time from the Tutorial button in the top bar.
Part 1 — Search, results, and everyday workflows 16 min
Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.

The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
Try it yourself
Head to the search page and work through a few of these AI/ML fuzzy searches to build intuition: perivascular fat on CT · aortic valve calcification opportunistic screening on noncontrast CT · breast cancer prediction on digital pathology slides · autism detection · gestational age prediction · a hearing aid that can also detect a pulse · foundation model based analysis of ECG · large language models · penetration test. Watch how the relevance scores, intended use, and AI Performance tables tell you when results stop being meaningful.
